I have succeeded in writing a patch using diff but realised afterwards that I had done it on the already patched ubuntu linux-source package from the repositories. I don't know but I think I should have done it to the pristine kernel sources so that the patch can be added to the ubuntu kernel patches. Could someone advise me on this?
I also tried the feisty kernel (only the kernel - used everything else from edgy) from herd 4 and the bug still exists. I tried recompiling the feisty kernel with my hostap_cs patch but booting with the card inserted hard locked the machine similar to the edgy kernel so I tried inserting the card after booting and logging in but this also hard locked the machine. I also tried single boot mode to the same effect. I am wondering whether it is something to do with the new upstart init system or a kernel IRQ allocation problem.
